Oliver's plans to marry his sweetheart, Dulcy, with Stan as his best man, face a series of obstacles.
Dulcy's father opposes the union upon seeing a photograph of Ollie, leading to the cancellation of the wedding arrangements. Additionally, Stan accidentally ruins the wedding cake by spraying it with fly spray.
Later, Ollie mistakenly ingests the insecticide, believing it to be throat medicine, resulting in him seeking relief by applying ice cubes, only to comically slip and fall on the ice.
Despite these mishaps, the couple decides to elope and arranges to meet a Justice of the Peace clandestinely. However, their elopement is marked by further comedic misadventures. They struggle to fit into a very small car (an American Austincoupe) mistakenly rented by Stan for the occasion; Ollie had asked Stan to get "a closed car - something we can drive ourselves" and expected a normal-sized sedan.
Eventually, they manage to squeeze into the car along with a suitcase, causing the vehicle to tilt under their weight, resulting in Stan's head protruding through the roof.
The situation culminates with a cross-eyed justice officiates a marriage ceremony, uniting Ollie and Stan in matrimony.
